I never get too caught up in workout times....certainly not to say they don't matter in certain situations though.

Times usually arent that signifigant unless they are extremes. I was watching SS work the other day and he broke off in a canter but was rolling in the stretch. Carl seemed very satisfied which leads me to believe that he was not really tuned up for Sat's race. A work that slow for a horse of that calibur is hardly an effort. I'd guess his pre derby work will be a little sharper. We'll see.
